GitHub Markup
=============
This library is the first step of a journey that every markup file in a repository goes on before it is rendered on GitHub.com:
1. This library converts the raw markup to HTML. See the list of [supported markup formats](#markups) below.
1. The HTML is sanitized, aggressively removing things that could harm you and your kin—such as `script` tags, inline-styles, and `class` or `id` attributes. See the [sanitization filter](https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline/blob/master/lib/html/pipeline/sanitization_filter.rb) for the full whitelist.
1. Syntax highlighting is performed on code blocks. See [github/linguist](https://github.com/github/linguist#syntax-highlighting) for more information about syntax highlighting.
1. The HTML is passed through other filters in the [html-pipeline](https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline) that add special sauce, such as [emoji](https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline/blob/master/lib/html/pipeline/emoji_filter.rb), [task lists](https://github.com/github/task_list/blob/master/lib/task_list/filter.rb), [named anchors](https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline/blob/master/lib/html/pipeline/toc_filter.rb), [CDN caching for images](https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline/blob/master/lib/html/pipeline/camo_filter.rb), and [autolinking](https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline/blob/master/lib/html/pipeline/autolink_filter.rb).
1. The resulting HTML is rendered on GitHub.com.
Please note that **only the first step** is covered by this gem — the rest happens on GitHub.com. In particular, `markup` itself does no sanitization of the resulting HTML, as it expects that to be covered by whatever pipeline is consuming the HTML.
Please see our [contributing guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md) before reporting an issue.
Markups
-------
The following markups are supported. The dependencies listed are required if
you wish to run the library. You can also run `script/bootstrap` to fetch them all.
* [.markdown, .mdown, .mkdn, .md](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) -- `gem install commonmarker` (https://github.com/gjtorikian/commonmarker)
* [.textile](https://www.promptworks.com/textile) -- `gem install RedCloth` (https://github.com/jgarber/redcloth)
* [.rdoc](https://ruby.github.io/rdoc/) -- `gem install rdoc -v 3.6.1`
* [.org](http://orgmode.org/) -- `gem install org-ruby` (https://github.com/wallyqs/org-ruby)
* [.creole](http://wikicreole.org/) -- `gem install creole` (https://github.com/larsch/creole)
* [.mediawiki, .wiki](http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting) -- `gem install wikicloth` (https://github.com/nricciar/wikicloth)
* [.rst](http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html) -- `pip install docutils`
* [.asciidoc, .adoc, .asc](http://asciidoc.org/) -- `gem install asciidoctor` (http://asciidoctor.org)
* [.pod](http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl/pod/perlpod.pod) -- `Pod::Simple::XHTML`
comes with Perl >= 5.10. Lower versions should install Pod::Simple from CPAN.
Installation
-----------
```
gem install github-markup
```
Usage
-----
Basic form:
```ruby
require 'github/markup'
GitHub::Markup.render('README.markdown', "* One\n* Two")
```
More realistic form:
```ruby
require 'github/markup'
GitHub::Markup.render(file, File.read(file))
```
And a convenience form:
```ruby
require 'github/markup'
GitHub::Markup.render_s(GitHub::Markups::MARKUP_MARKDOWN, "* One\n* Two")
```
